Student Program SOAR Grant
Student Organizing Assistance and Resources
Building a strong presence on campus is one of the biggest challenges that NEA Student Program chapters face. NEA provides financial assistance in the form of SOAR (Student Organizing and Assistance Resources) grants to encourage your efforts to recruit new members or organize a student chapter.
Applications for first-semester efforts are due August 31 and ones for the second-semester are due January 31.
Chapters may apply for funding to recruit in the following areas:
-
Urban institutions
-
Minority populations and historically minority campuses
-
Community colleges
-
High school future teacher programs
Priority is given to student locals working with UniServ units.
